Chapter 316 Jiang Lu in the Earthquake
Scythe and the performer looked at Jiang Lu, who had just returned from the Law Enforcement Bureau, in silence.
Jiang Lu just stood in front of the two of them openly, showing himself to his heart's content.
Although he was wearing a mask, his lively big eyes seemed to be able to speak, and he was blinking like an excited girl who had just gotten a manicure and came home to ask her boyfriend if he had noticed any changes in herself.
After a long while, Scythe reluctantly cooperated and asked, "What are you doing?"
Jiang Lu hesitated for a moment, thinking that he had explained everything he needed to, and there was no need to worry about whether the sickle and the performers were injured or not, so if they were injured, they were injured. So he took off his mask and took out the ball gag from his mouth to facilitate communication.
"Handsome, right?"
"He's handsome, right?" Scythe looked embarrassed, and it was obvious that he felt uneasy saying such a thing against his will.
The performer was more blunt: "What stupid clothes?"
What Jiang Lu is wearing now is the uniform that has just been delivered to him by the Law Enforcement Bureau, which is also a promotional uniform for internet celebrities and the Kunlun Mountain school uniform.
On the green uniform, the densely packed white characters on the front and back are particularly eye-catching, a bit like Wu Jing's sportswear with "Zhongguo" printed on it, except that Wu Jing's can only be considered as flowery arms, while Jiang Lu's has a full back.
"Hey, that's wrong."
Jiang Lu waved his hand:
“At first I thought it was shit, but when I was wearing it and walking down the street, feeling the strange looks from passers-by, I suddenly felt like I was running naked on the street. I can only say that although it’s shit, it’s naked.
The most important thing is that I didn't do this voluntarily. It was requested by the law enforcement agency. It was like doing a mission. I felt a sense of being forced. Do you understand me?"
"I don't quite understand, but it feels very strange." Scythe shook his head: "Maybe there is a generation gap between you and me."
"It's not a generation gap issue. This is completely perverted." The performer corrected: "I thought this dress was heavy enough, but I didn't expect that you had something even more outrageous in your mind."
Seeing that the two of them couldn't understand him, Jiang Lu couldn't help feeling a little disappointed. In order to better integrate into the group, he had to explain: "Ah, I was just joking. Actually, I also felt it was a bit weird, but there was nothing I could do. They asked me to dress like this, saying that it could promote the Law Enforcement Bureau. I don't really understand."
"Are you kidding me again?" The performer scoffed at Jiang Lu's change of words: "Are you sure your treasure is not out of control again?"
Hearing this, Jiang Lu actually started to think seriously: "In theory, if I didn't cause you any mental harm, then it shouldn't be a loss of control. But if you actually have any special expectations of me, and after I joked like this, your filter for me was shattered, causing my image in your hearts to collapse, then that's another matter."
"No expectation at all." Scythe shook his head immediately.
The performer also said sarcastically: "Besides, you are already a ruin. What kind of house is collapsing?"
"Hmm," Jiang Lu nodded thoughtfully.
After hearing the two people's comments about him, he seemed to have grasped the law of "Absolute Truth" being out of control for a moment.
If the prerequisites for activating [Absolute Truth] are divided into two parts: "truth" and "will cause harm", then the first condition that needs to be met is that you have grasped a weakness or soft spot of others.
In most cases, unless you deliberately investigate and look for it, it is difficult to find out what others care about most, so "absolute truth" does not hold true.
If you look closely at the cases of Jin Yao and Hong Yi, you will find that they were hurt because the person they cared about the most was Jiang Lu, and Jiang Lu himself was the weakness and soft spot, so as long as the truth they told could destroy his image in their hearts, [absolute truth] would be established.
In this way, it seems that the loss of control of [Absolute Truth] is not as dangerous as imagined. As long as the two prerequisites are not met and others do not have any expectations of Jiang Lu, then this loss of control is actually not uncontrollable.
Because of this, when facing people like Scythe and Performer who have long lost all hope in him, Jiang Lu's thinking remains normal, and he does not suddenly lose control even when speaking normally.
Thinking of this, Jiang Lu began to think about deeper issues.
So if this is the case, is it possible for this bad loss of control to turn into something beneficial to oneself through skillful manipulation?
As long as it is different from what you would normally say, can you blame it on "losing control"?
For example, in most cases it would be regarded as a lie with sweet words and false sincerity. But under the setting that "you may lose control and speak your true thoughts at any time", wouldn't it be easier for people to believe it?
For example, can we express some excessive and rude requests without restraint?
If you disagree, just blame it on "out of control". If you agree, then you'll make a lot of money and save yourself a lot of hassles and tests.
At this moment, Jiang Lu felt like he was a genius.
He can turn any huge disadvantage into an advantage. Isn't this genius?
After thinking this through, Jiang Lu couldn't wait to find someone to experiment with it.
He asked the two of them, "Come to think of it, I've been gone for such a long time, have they finished building their foundation?"
"I remember they said it would take two hours if everything went well, right?" Scythe recalled, looking at the clock in the room: "It's more than three hours now, it should be almost time."
"Then let's wait a little longer." Jiang Lu nodded, walked to the balcony and sat down on the recliner.
Just as he had just laid down to take a rest and was thinking about how to use the "loss of control" to deceive or launch a sneak attack, he suddenly felt the recliner under him shaking.
"Eh? Is this a massage chair?" Jiang Lu stood up and asked in surprise.
But before the other two could react, Jiang Lu discovered that not only the recliner, but everything in the room was shaking. Several glass cups on the coffee table were shaken to the ground by the strong vibration and broke into pieces with a crisp sound.
Jiang Lu breathed a sigh of relief and lay back down: "I was shocked. It turned out to be an earthquake. I thought it was a massage chair that would secretly charge a fee."
“You seem to care about something a little weird.”
The performer complained and then quickly stood up and went to the window to look out.
In just over ten seconds, many quick-reacting guests had already fled the hotel and were standing on the ground outside, confused and not knowing what was happening.
Soon, more and more people escaped from the hotel. Most of those who came out late were busy with something, taking a shower or sleeping, so they were a little slow. Some of them didn't even put on their clothes, and escaped wrapped in bath towels and nightgowns.
The empty plain soon became noisy, with shouting and crying heard everywhere, filled with the crowd's helplessness and fear about the unknown emergency.
"Let's leave quickly. We don't know the magnitude of the earthquake. The house might collapse." Sickle urged and jumped out from the balcony.
The performers followed.
Jiang Lu saw that they all left. Although he felt that Xiao Zhen didn't need to run and Da Zhen couldn't escape, in order to fit in with the group, he also climbed out from the second-floor balcony.
However, the direction he chose was different from the other two.
Because he was just sitting on a recliner, he didn't notice that the two people slid down the drainpipe, but just jumped straight in. As expected, there was still an accident.
The sickle and the performer, who were hanging up and down on the drainpipe, watched Jiang Lu hit the head of a person who had just escaped from the emergency exit downstairs, knocking the person unconscious.
Seeing this, they began to slide down faster and faster.
When Jiang Lu came to his senses, he found that he had knocked a passerby unconscious, and he immediately looked around.
Fortunately, no one seemed to notice the situation here, and in the few short seconds it took for the sickle and the performer to slide down the pipe and trot over to his side, he thought of how to remedy the situation.
He immediately raised his arms and shouted: "Hurry up, someone has fallen over here and fainted!"
Hearing his shout, two hotel staff members who were maintaining order immediately ran over and helped carry the innocent passerby to a safe area.
In the panic, a cold-looking woman ran out of the crowd, shouting, "Junior sister! Junior sister, what's wrong with you?!"
Jiang Lu took a closer look and found that this person looked familiar.
It seemed like he was the guy who was not very friendly to him in the casino at that time.
When she looked down again, she realized that the person she had knocked unconscious was the little Lolita next to her.
Seeing the cold woman running to the little girl, Jiang Lu didn't have time to think about why they were here, and immediately explained with a guilty conscience: "Just now when she was running out, a piece of gravel fell and almost hit her head. Fortunately, I pushed her away in time. Who knew that she lost her balance after I pushed her away and fell down, and then fainted. I'm sorry, I meant well but ended up doing something bad."
"It's okay. Falling is better than getting hit." The cold woman checked the little girl's injuries. After confirming that she was not seriously injured, she comforted Jiang Lu without raising her head and said, "She is fine. She should just be too frightened. Are you okay?"
"I'm fine." Jiang Lu was about to say that he was fine, but suddenly changed his words and said, "Ah, I didn't notice it just now, I sprained my ankle."
After saying this, she limped forward in cooperation.
The sickle and the performer on the side frowned.
"Why hasn't he lost control yet?"
"I don't know, it should be soon."
When the cold woman heard that someone had been injured in order to save her junior sister, she planned to express her gratitude to the benefactor. But when she looked up, she was suddenly stunned: "It's you?"
Jiang Lu also cooperated and pretended that he had just noticed it: "Ah? It's you?"
Although her first impression of Jiang Lu was not good, it was a fact that he saved her junior sister, so she could not help but change her opinion of Jiang Lu and had a little better impression of him. Finally, she solemnly expressed her gratitude to Jiang Lu: "Anyway, thank you."
"Of course, of course." Jiang Lu said modestly, "Then I'll leave first."
As soon as he raised his foot, he suddenly grimaced.
The cold woman frowned: "Are you seriously injured?"
"It's out of the way."
"Let me see." The cold woman didn't say anything. She squatted down and lifted up Jiang Lu's trouser leg, then looked up in confusion: "Your foot is okay."
Jiang Lu didn't expect that she would check directly. In a hurry, he suddenly said "Huh?" in the direction of the little loli.
The cold woman thought her junior sister had woken up, and subconsciously turned back, only to find that her junior sister was still unconscious.
In this split second, Jiang Lu's face showed a ruthless look. He raised his left foot and stepped hard on his right ankle. With a click, the right ankle cracked.
When the cold woman turned around, she suddenly saw that Jiang Lu's ankle, which had been normal just now, was swollen and strangely bent.
The moment Jiang Lu stepped on it, he regretted it.
The next moment after the severe pain came, he remembered that the healing BUFF seemed to be useless in this spiritual realm.
"What's going on? Wasn't it just now..." The cold woman was shocked.
Where's your sprained ankle? It's about to be broken, right?
Jiang Lu forced a smile: "It's a delayed injury. The pre-swing was a bit long, and it's happening now."
"Hurry up and sit down. I'll help you. Don't move your leg anymore."
Having said that, the cold woman forced Jiang Lu to sit down where he was, and then she carefully treated his injuries.
Seeing this, Scythe and the performer's brows furrowed even more tightly.
“How cruel!”
"Now I hope he doesn't lose control. He deserves this."
While the cold woman was bandaging Jiang Lu, the shaking did not disappear but became more intense.
Until this time, the two people, who had not found Jin Yao and Hong Yi in the crowd, began to worry.
Scythe said with some worry: "Jin Yao said that the foundation building cannot be disturbed, but who knew that such a thing would happen. They should be fine, right?"
"I don't know. Should we let Jiang Bao go and take a look?" said the performer.
When they looked at Jiang Lu, they heard Jiang Lu sitting there like an old man, saying things like "Your hands are so small", "What do you do? Your skin is so good", "Oh, this is so itchy".
I feel like I can't rely on him.
At this moment, on the other side of the hotel, a red-gold beam of light suddenly rose into the air and shot straight up from the ground towards the sky.
The originally clear blue sky was covered with dark clouds in the blink of an eye. No one knew where and when the dark clouds came from, but they covered the top of the hotel layer by layer, and then gradually spread to the entire Nanjiang City.
A dark purple lightning flashed, and the next moment, the shocking thunder resounded in everyone's heart, making people's eardrums hurt.
And this was just the beginning. Dense dark purple lightning flashed continuously and gathered behind the dark clouds, as if something was brewing.
This scene seemed like the end of the world, and everyone in Nanjiang City fell into panic. (End of this chapter)
